LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
The pouNDiiSiG of the Institution.
T EBANON VALLEY COLLEGE came into existence to
J-i supply an absolute want. Denominational growth and an
advancing civilization rendered it necessary for the Church of
"The United Brethren in Christ," throughout the States of
Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia, to make special provision
for the moral and intellectual culture of her children. After
much deliberation and prayer, it was resolved that an institu-
tion of learning be established, which would furnish the ad-
vantages of a thorough education alike to young men and
women, under the safe and inspiring influences of the Christian
religion.
To carry out this purpose, a committee of worthy gentlemen
was chosen, with authority to elect a suitable place for its es-
tablishment.
The Town of Annville,
located in the midst of the beautiful Lebanon Valley, was
chosen on account of its accessibility, healthfulness and in-
spiring scenery.
As a further inducement to locate the College at this place,
a suitable building and grounds were donated by public-spirited
citizens for educational purposes. In 1866 the Institution was
founded and in 1867 chartered by a Special Act of the Legisla-
ture of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
The Aim
of the Trustees and Faculty, from the first, has been to provide
courses of study which will qualify students to be practical and
self-reliant, as well as learned.
4 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
The Charter plainly indicates, that it was the intention of the
founders to plant an institution which would become so ample
in facilities and manifold in departments as to furnish in-
struction in all the subjects of a general and special education,
and toward this original purpose the Institution will advance as
rapidly as the necessary means are secured and circumstances
will demand it.
Officers of the Corporation.
The Board of Trustees are elected by the co-operating con-
ferences, one-third of whom are elected annually for a term of
three years.
The members of the Faculty, and two persons chosen by
the Alumni from their own number, sustain an ex-officio rela-
tion.
Fidelity to Patrons.
The members of the Faculty believe that all pupils should be
encouraged to educate as thoroughly as their means and native
endowment will admit, even when there is promise of only
moderate success ; but when a student persists in a course of
indifference, and manifests no appreciation of time, money or
opportunities, the Institution regards itself morally bound to
make known the facts to its patrons, but not until every worthy
method has been employed for his reformation.
Co-Education.
The principle of co-education of the sexes was adopted from
the first by the founders of the College — and the entire absence
of college barbarities and excesses, as well as the manifestation
of a tendency to a higher standard of scholarship, from year to
year, proves the wisdom of this natural order of things. The
facilities of the College and the encouragement to a thorough
education are offered alike to all. And experience has shown
that there is no appreciable difference between the male and the
female, as such, as to ability in mastering the studies of a
college course.
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 5
Non-Sectarian.
While the College is denominational in management, it is
positively free from sectarian bias ; and the liberal patronage
which it has enjoyed from homes representing all phases of
Protestant faith, as well as from the homes of non-professors,
attests the fact that colleges may inculcate the principles of
christian morality without traducing the religious convictions
or personal belief of any one.
Aggressive in Spirit.
The Institution is not bound in theory or practice to anti-
quated methods, but it seeks to interpret the laws of science
and of life in keeping with the spirit of progress and the lead-
ings of Providence.
Guaranty.
Fidelity to these principles in the past is the guaranty that
the Institution offers to its patrons in the future.

LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
(JOURSES OF gTUtlY.
The College offers four courses of study — the Classical, the
Scientific, the Academical and the Musical.
The Classical Course
is the most thorough, and should be elected by those who con-
template entering the " Learned Professions," and by such as
aspire to the ripest scholarship or purely literary pursuits. Those
who satisfactorily finish this course are graduated with the de-
gree— Bachelor of Arts.
The Scientific Course
requires but one ancient language — either the Greek or the
Latin ; otherwise it is the same as the Classical Course.
It leads to the degree — Bachelor of Science.
The Academical Course
extends over three Collegiate years, and is as full and symmetrical
as the time will admit. It is intended to furnish the necessary
discipline and instruction for a practical education. A diploma
will be awarded to those who complete this course.
The Musical Course,
in addition to the regular studies of the subject, requires a gen-
erous knowledge of such branches as are best suited to a musical
education.

GENERAL PREPARATORY.
During each term of the Collegiate year, two classes in Arith-
metic are organized ; also, one in Elementary Algebra, two
classes in (rreene's English Grammar, one in Analysis, and one
in Definitions and Parsing ; also, classes in Reading, Drawing,
Penmanship, Mitchell's Descriptive Geography, and a class in
Book-keeping.
NORMAL DEPARTMENT.
It has been our custom for a number of years to provide a
Normal Department for the instruction of teachers, or of those
who intend to teach, and our work has been appreciated.
More recently the department has been more fully developed,
the course enlarged, the number of instructors increased, and
more general facilities provided. This Normal Department is
in session only during the Spring Term.
Course of Instruction.
United States History, (Anderson or Swinton) ; Physical
Geography, (Mitchell or Warren) ; Political Geography,
(Mitchell) ; Civil Government, (Young) ; English Grammar,
(Raub or Greene) ; Higher English, (Raub or Greene) ; Read-
ing, (Appleton's Fifth) ; Orthography, (Raub) ; Physiology,
(Mill) ; Written Arithmetic, A, (Brooks' Normal) ; Written
Arithemetic, B, (Brooks' Normal) ; Mental Arithmetic, A and
B, (Brooks'); Algebra, (Robinson's Elementary); Theory of
Teaching, (Raub or Baldwin) ; Latin Grammar, Beginning,
(Allen & Greenough's Grammar and Jones' Lessons).
In addition to these the regular college work, including the
Higher Mathematics, Sciences, &c., offers opportunities for ad-
vanced work that some may desire to improve, in so far as they
Jo not conflict with their regular normal work.
Lectures by prominent educators on various phases of the
educational work will be freely provided, to add variety, inter-
est and inspiration.
28 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC.
Music Course.
The course of instruction in either Piano or Voice will occupy
three years. A Preparatory year is also required of those who
expect to enter upon the regular course, and are not already
familiar with the rudiments of music. Pupils may devote their
entire time to music, or take it in connection with other studies.
The stated time for completing the course may be lengthened or
shortened, according to the advancement of the pupil. Some
pupils will accomplish in two years what would take others three
or four years to complete. A knowledge of the elements of
Harmony will be required, or one year's study, in order to
graduate in either Piano or Voice. At the close of each term a
written examination is made. A graduate in Voice is also ex-
pected to acquire a degree of proficiency on the Piano, sufficient
to enable him to play his own accompaniments.
Private and Class Lessons.
Private lessons will be given at extra cost, but the class system
is strongly recommended. It is practiced in the best conserva-
tories of this country and Europe. Mendelssohn says : "it has
advantages over private instruction : it produce industry, spurs
on to emulation and preserves against one-sidedness of educa-
tion and taste." " The student of music will as surely fail of
a complete musical education, by taking private instruction
alone, as would the student of science without the advantage of
the College or University." ,
Students in Piano are arranged in classes of two. Voice cul-
ture pupils in classes of two or four. Harmony students in
classes of four or six.
Elements of music, sight-singing and part-singing classes free
to all music pupils. Public recitals are given by the music
pupils every two months.
Pupils will take practice in ensemble playing.
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 29
Recitations.
Classes in cultivation of the voice, piano-forte, organ, har-
mony and chorus practice receive two lessofis a week. Stu-
dents may enter at any time, but it is very desirable that they
should begin with the term on account of grading, time of les-
sons, &c. A careful examination is made by the teacher in
charge, regarding the proficiency of all new pupils, that they
may be properly classified in the course.
Sheet music, books, (Sec, can be obtained at reduced rates.
Those who complete the required course of study in either
Piano or Voice are awarded a diploma. Diplomas will be con-
ferred only at the Annual Commencement.
ART DEPARTMENT.
This department is well supplied with studies from the best
artists, new additions being made from time to time. Ample
opportunities are afforded for obtaining instruction in Free-hand
Drawing, both from casts and the flat. Modelling in Clay,
Painting in Oil, China and Water Colors. It is intended to
impart essential principles while training the eye and hand to
accurate and successful practice.
Special advantages in this department are afforded by a sys-
tem of giving daily lessons, which is not customary in schools
not especially devoted to Art.
Students will find works of interest and assistance in the Col-
lege Library.
30 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
(Jenehal Information.
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE is located at Annville.
This village is noted for its healthfulness and freedom
from those temptations to vice so common to cities and large
towns. It is accessible from all points, being located on the
direct route of railroad travel from Harrisburg, via Reading, to
Philadelphia or New York. Trains stopping at Annville leave
Harrisburg and Reading seven times a day, Sunday excepted.
Buildings and Grounds.
There are two large brick buildings, capable of accommoda-
ting a large number of students. The rooms are arranged for
two students each, are well ventilated, contain clothes-presses
and other conveniences.
There has recently been erected a third building, containing
the Library, a large and well-lighted Art-Room, two Music
Rooms, the entire Department of Natural Science, with its
Laboratory and Museum. There is also a fine campus of about
six acres.
The Ladies' Hall is entirely separate from the other prem-
ises, and is under the immediate care of the Preceptress. Young
ladies from abroad are furnished a comfortable and pleasant
home, where they have every advantage for study and general
improvement. Non-resident students board in the Institution,
where they are under the continual care of the President and
Professors.
Furnishing and Outfit.
Students are required to furnish their own bedding, except
the mattress, bolster and pillows. They should have their blan-
kets, sheets, pillow-cases and clothing indelibly marked with
their full name.
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 3 1
Spending Money,
Patrons are kindly but urgently reminded that students need
very little pocket money.
It should be remembered that luxurious habits and good
scholarship seldom go together, and that the principles and
practice of economy are essential to a good education.
For All,
It is desired that the facilities of the College be kept within
the reach of all, and it is therefore urged that jewelry be left at
home, and that in dress there be no vain display of wealth.
All that is beyond a becoming neatness should be discarded
by the student.
Discipline.
The object of the institution is to afford a home, where pa-
rents or guardians may place their sons, daughters, and wards,
with safety and profit, and where young men and young women
may be fitted for usefulness under influences calculated to refine
their tastes, ennoble their aspirations, discipline their intellectual
powers, and develop a high Christian character. The Govern-
ment of the College is strict but parental, making its appeal
to the student's own sense of honor, but no one habitually
guilty of immoral practices, or who is persistently disorderly,
can be tolerated in the institution. Every unexcused absence,
failure, or misdemeanor of a student is reported to the Faculty,
and a record made of the same.
The first three demerit marks will subject the student to pri-
vate reproof; the first six to reproof before the Faculty ; the first
nine to reproof in public, with notice to parent or guardian ;
and the first twelve to dismission from the College.
The Faculty may, on evidence of reformation, restore a dis-
missed student.
Studies and Recitations.
Students are required to pursue the studies of the classes to
which they are assigned, unless exempted for special reasons.
32 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
No Student is permitted to take a study to which lie has not
been assigned, nor to discontinue a study without permission
obtained from the Faculty.
Grading.
Students are graded on their work in the Recitation Room.
The standard of perfection in scholarship is loo. The student's
standing is determined by the average of his term and examina-
tion grades. A grade of less than 65 per centum will compel
the student to submit to a second examination, or to repeat the
study with the next lower class.
Parents having children in the College classes, and desiring
their report and grades, may obtain them by applying to the
Secretary of the Faculty.
Examinations.
Regular examinations are held at the close of each term.
The examinations are intended to be thorough, and have an in-
fluence in determining the standing of the student.
In all cases, when from any cause a student has failed to be
present at the regular examination, he shall undergo an exam-
niation before being permitted again to recite in the classes of
the College.
The final examinations of the Seniors are held two weeks
before Commencement, from which time they are subject only
to such duties as are required for their preparation for gradua-
tion.
Candidates for class standing other than those who have reg-
ularly pursued their studies at the College, or who bring certifi-
cates of class standing in other institutions, are required to pass
special examinations, either at the beginning or end of a term.
Promotion.
At the beginning of each term, the old classes are re-organ-
ized and new ones formed. At or near the close of each
academic year, the names of all the members of each class, sep-
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 33
arately, come before the Faculty for promotion, and those -of
thp Senior Class for graduation, and no student is promoted to
a higher class, or to graduation, except upon the unanimous
vote of the Faculty.
Rhetorical Exercise.
All Students upon entering the Institution are assigned to
rhetorical classes, which are met on Wednesday of each week by
members of the Faculty for literary drill. These Rhetoricals,
together with the Literary Societies, afford sufficient opportuni-
ties for exercise in Composition and Oratory. Advanced classes
in the College are required to take part in public exercises two
or three times a year.
Leave of Absence.
No student is allowed to be absent during the term without
special permission. The absence of a student, for even a day,
during his term-time, exerts on his progress an evil influence,
which is seldom fully appreciated by parents and guardians ;
hence no apology, but that of sickness or unavoidable accident,
is sufficient to excuse a student from regular attendance at
recitation.
No student, during the term, is expected to quit the Institu-
tion without the consent of the President and Faculty.
Any one withdrawing from the Institution during term time,
without giving due notice, and having permission to do so, will
be marked upon the records as having irregularly withdrawn.
Any student prevented from attending class must present to
the Professor in charge a written excuse for being absent
Religious Exercises.
Religious service is held in the College Chapel on the morn-
ing of each day, and all students are required to attend.
Students from abroad, who are residents of the College, are
also required to attend public worship on the Sabbath in the
United Brethren Church, unless otherwise directed by the
Faculty, except those who, on account of church membership.
34 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
or wish of parent or guardian, may prefer to attend church
elsewhere.
A students' prayer meeting, to which all are invited, is held
on each Tuesday evening.
Y. M. C. A.
There is a thrifty organization of the Young Men's Christian
Association in the College, which holds its meetings on Satur-
day night of each week. The moral influence of this organiza-
tion is very salutary in the institution.
Literary Societies.
There are connected with the College three lii-erary Societies
— the Clionian, the Philokosmian, and the Kalozetean.
The first is the ladies' society. Each has its proper hall and its
own library. These societies are regarded as valuable aids to
college work, and students are advised to join one of them.
Physical Culture.
A well equipped gymnasium is in operation in the main Col-
lege building, to which all students have access at stated times
by the payment of a small fee. A careful "Director" has
oversight of these exercises to guard against accidents and im-
moderation.
In addition to the physical discipline of the gymnasium, the
students are required to take regular exercise in the open air
when the weather will admit of it, and every precaution is taken
to foster health.
Help for Indigent Students.
The College has methods of assisting a limited number of
worthy young men who have not the means of defraying their
own expenses, and yet scores apply from year to year, both of
ladies and gentlemen, whom we have not the means to help.
May not the statement of this fact be a sufficient appeal to lead
many to endow scholarships, the income of which will be suf-
ficient to help to an education those who could not otherwise
obtain it ?
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 35
Libraries and Cabinets.
The College Library, to which all the students have daily
access without charge, contains nearly twenty-eight hundred
volumes. The libraries of the literary societies also comprise a
respectable number of well selected and standard volumes. The
libraries are constantly increasing by donations from friends
and from the proceeds of a constantly accruing fund.
The Cabinet contains a collection of specimens in Miner-
alogy, Geology and Natural History. •
Reading Room.
There is in the College a well-stocked Reading Room which
is daily accessible to the students, and in connection with it a
Natural History Club which operates in conjunction with the
corresponding department of the institution.
A small fee is charged for reading-room privileges.
Degrees.
Bachelor of Arts. — This degree is conferred in course upon
any student of the College who completes the studies of the
Classical Course, and passes a satisfactory examination upon the
same.
Bachelor of Science. — This degree is conferred in course
upon any student who completes the studies of the Scientific
Course and passes a satisfactory examination upon the same.
Master of Arts. — This degree is, on application, conferred
upon any Bachelor of Arts who has, for at least three years
after his graduation, devoted himself to literary or professional
pursuits, and has, during the same time, sustained a good moral
character. Fee, five dollars.
Inquiries Concerning Departments.
Persons wishing more detailed information than is given in
this catalogue, as to courses of study, methods of instruction,
examinations, etc., may address the President or the Professor
in charge of the department concerned.
;^6 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
Schedule.
At the end of each term a Schedule of the College Exercises
for the ensuing term is issued. Every student must take the
equivalent of at least fifteen periods of recitations each week,
unless excused by special action of the Faculty.
S. S. Normal Class.
A Normal Class for the instruction of Sunday School Teach-
er^ is conducted on each Sabbath by one of the Professors.
The course of instruction extends over one year, and is the
one provided for and used by the Bible Normal Union. A
diploma issued by the Sunday School Board of the United
Brethren Church is granted to students who complete the course.
Lecture Course.
A course of Popular Lectures will be delivered during the
Fall and Winter Terms by some of the most noted lecturers in
the field.
During the past year the following lecturers were engaged :
Prof. Henry Houck, Deputy State Supt. ; Prof. R. M. Mc-
Neal ; Prof. John W. Snoke, County Supt. ; Dr. E. E. Higbee,
State Supt. ; Prof. J. H. Kurtzenknabe, Belva Lockwood, Dr.
A. A. Willets, Rev. John DeWitt Miller, Thomas H. Murray,
Rev. Russell H. Conwell and others.
In addition to these lectures, there were lectures by the
Faculty.
Announcement and Suggestions.
From time to time additions are being made of apparatus for
philosophical and laboratory purposes as well as of specimens
of scientific and historic interest. Many of these additions are
the gift of friends to whom the College makes grateful acknowl-
edgment.
The institution is prepared to suitably preserve and exhibit all
specimens of any value, and in all cases the wishes of donors
will be respected.
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 37
Specimens in Geology, Mineralogy, Botany and Zoology are
especially solicited.
Contributions to the College Library will also be highly ap-
preciated, especially of old and rare books and manuscripts,
which are liable to be lost if they are not deposited in the li-
brary of a permanent institution.
Books, specimens and antique relics should be addressed to
the librarian or Professor of the Natural Science Department,
with the donor's name legibly signed.
Terms and Vacations.
The Collegiate Year is divided into three terms.
The Fall Term will begin Monday, August 26th, 1889, and
will end on Friday, December 20th, 1889.
The Winter Term will begin on Monday, January 6th, 1890,

The charges for room rent, heat and furniture is made on the basis of
two persons to each room. In case where a student rooms alone he will
be charged 50 cents additional per week. Any student not boarding in
the institution and occupying a room in the building will be charged a
reasonable rent for the same.
Extra washing, plain pieces, 50 cents per dozen. White dresses, etc.,
extra.
Each student will be held accountable for any damage he or she may
cause to the college property. Students will be held individually respon-
sible for all damage done to their rooms, by whomsoever committed.
Tuition and room rent are counted from the time of entering to the end
of the term, and tuition from the first of the term for entrance second or
third week.
We urge a comparison of these charges with those of other schools, be-
lieving that such a comparison will establish the fact that our rates are more
moderate for the advantages afforded than can be found elsewhere.
Terms of Payment.
All fees for diplomas and degrees must be paid thirty days before Com-
mencement.
One-half of all other bills in advance. Balance in the middle of the
term. This rule will be firmly adhered to. No student can be admitted
to classes until all bills are satisfactorily settled with the Financial Secretary.

^NIDOWMENT.
There are Christian men and women who could not devote themselves
to the pursuits of knowledge for want of means ; throughout their life they
have felt that they might have been more useful and happy, had the oppor-
tunities of securing an education been afforded them. Will not these men
and women become the benefactors of those worthy young people, many
of whom now are thirsting for an education, but who are so circumstanced
that they cannot obtain it ?
Those wishing to consecrate some of their means to such an end are
solicited to endow limited scholarships in Lebanon Valley College, to assist
those who are deserving of help. These may vary in amount from S500
to §2,000. They may also help to bring the opportunities of an education
within the reach of those in limited circumstances by contributing to the
endowment of the College.
Form of Scholarship Bequest.
I bequeath to my executors the sum of dollars, in trust, to
pay over the same in months after my decease, to the person
who, when the same is payable, shall act as Treasurer of Lebanon Valley
College, founded at Annville, Pennsylvania, in the year one thousand eight
hundred and sixty-six, as a scholarship fund, the interest of which only is
to be loaned without charge to such pious young people as the Faculty of
the College may deem worthy of help as students, the principal of the
scholarship to be under the direction and management of the Trustees of
the College.
Form of Bequest to the Endowment Fund.
I bequeath to my executors the sum of dollars, in trust, to
pay over the same in months, after my decease, to the person
who, when the same is payable, shall act as Treasurer of Lebanon Valley
College, founded in Annville, Pennsylvania, in the year one thousand eight
hundred and sixty-six, the same to be sacred as an endowment fund in said
College, the interest only to be used for the payment of instructors in the
department ; the principal of said bequest to be under the di-
rection and management of the Trustees of the College.
